In order for a device to be officially supported by crDroid, OTA information needs to be added. Please refer to the following "Readme" to get started"

In order for a device to be OTA compliant, there are a few things to know.

    <manufacturer id="Manufacturer">
        <DeviceCode>
            <maintainer>MaintainerName</maintainer>
            <devicename>DeviceName</devicename>
            <filename>FileName</filename>
            <buildtype>BuildType</buildtype>
            <download>DownloadLink</download>
            <changelog>ChangelogLink</changelog>
            <gapps>GappsLink</gapps>
            <forum>ForumLink</forum>
            <firmware>FirmwareLink</firmware>
            <modem>ModemLink</modem>
            <bootloader>BootloaderLink</bootloader>
            <recovery>RecoveryLink</recovery>
            <paypal>PaypalLink</paypal>
            <telegram>TelegramLink</telegram>
        </DeviceCode>
    </manufacturer>

• Manufacturer - Add under existing manufacturer (create manufacturer if required)
• DeviceCode - Device code name
• MaintainerName - Maintainer name followed by prefered name in parenthesis
• DeviceName - Device name (not code name)
• FileName - Latest crdroid build name (OTA code parses date to check for new version - don't include file extension .zip)
• BuildType - Nightly/Weekly/Final
• DownloadLink - Official download folder url (from AFH) masked by bit.ly shortlinks
• ChangelogLink - Changelog url (GitHub)
• GappsLink - Google apps url (preferred: opengapps url)
• ForumLink - Forum url for discussions and support (preferred: xda url)

All mandatory XML tags need to be there. Please leave blank in case some do not apply to you.

• FirmwareLink - link for needed firmware
• ModemLink - link for needed modem
• BootloaderLink - link for needed bootloader
• RecoveryLink - link for recommended recovery
• PaypalLink - paypal url (for donations)
• TelegramLink - telegram url (if you offer support via telegram - can be a group link or telegram.me link)

• Check if manufacturer is already existing
• Check if published link is official
• Check if XML is intact
• Check if no extra / missing spaces

Due to the fact the XML does not accept "&" in tags, there is a need to shortlink your download links
